Sean Connolly’s overturned a two point half-time deficit (0-7 to 0-5) into a six point winning margin to score a vital victory over Cashel in Group 2 of the Intermediate Football Championship at McGann Park, Kenagh on Friday evening.

Sean Connolly’s . . . 1-12 Cashel . . . 0-9

Two minutes into the second half Paddy McDonnell got the crucial only goal to put Connolly’s ahead by one point and they took control from there on.

Cashel just could not compete with them and the losers were wasteful in front of the posts in their struggle on the changeover with the loss of the injured Conor Farrell early in the game proving to be a big blow.

Connolly’s put in a solid team performance and were worthy winners. Dessie Reynolds once again showed what an excellent footballer he is when firing over six points for the Ballinalee side.
